A collection of photographs by Nobuyoshi Araki, one of Japan's leading photographers known by the nickname of Araki. Araki started photography under the influence of his father, who was a geta craftsman and an amateur photographer. Since the 1970s, he has released sensational works that have been handed down to the present day, such as "Oh Japan" and "Sentimental Journey," and at the time of their excellence, extreme nudity and snaps full of humanity have captivated photographers around the world. This book is a series of 15 serializations from 1976 to 1981 in the manga magazine Gallo. The series was triggered by Shinbo Minami, who is known for being an illustrator, when he edited in "Garo" at the time, and told Araki, who was a reader of "Garo", "It's like a photo-dramatic story that creates a story like a manga and arranges photos. It seems that it started by requesting "things". Mostly women's portraits and nudity, but also Yoko Yoko's appearance. Many of them consist of photographs and texts (like stories, diaries, and reports), and the content is rich in wit like Araki. At the end of the book, in addition to the south, there is also a dialogue with Kazuhiro Watanabe (also known as a manga artist and illustrator) and Noriko Tezuka who were in charge of editing at the time.
